DEADLINE: Leslie Baltz Art Study Fund

Monday, April 22, 2024

Some years ago, Leslie Anne Baltz, a double major in this department, died in tragic circumstances, and her parents established the Leslie Baltz Art Study Fund in her memory. Its purpose is to assist a rising third or fourth-year major in art history or studio art, who plans to spend a year, semester, or summer studying in Italy.

This year we will award one fellowship in the amount of $2,000.00 to a student studying in Italy in the Summer of 2024, Fall 2024 or Spring 2025. 

The application is due: Monday, April 22 and the recipient will be notified by Friday May 3. 

We would like now to request applications for this fellowship from rising third-year and rising fourth-year majors in studio and/or art history.

Your application should consist of the following:

  1. A letter of application, explaining in detail your study plans in Italy.

  2. A copy of your most recent unofficial transcript (available on SIS).

  3. The names of two members of the Art Department faculty to serve as references.

  4. Your local contact information: address, phone number, e-mail address.

Please address your application to me and send it electronically as a single PDF file to Laura Mellusi in the Art Department office
